California Owners: Opportunity for Retro License Plate

I just read about this opportunity for purchasing a retro style California license plate from either the 50's, 60's or 70's. The coolness factor for me to own a retro looking car like the Z8 with a retro license plate is too good to pass up. My top choice is a 1960's black plate with yellow lettering. The only caveat is that 7,500 plates must be pre-purchased by January 2015.

The preorder threshold for production of 7,500 black CA license plates was recently met. As a result, the DMV is now initiating the production phase, which according to its website will result in the 1960's based California license plates being delivered to customers in 9 - 12 months.

My custom plate order was submitted years ago now… The sequence of the plate is three letters, space, followed by three numbers. So my plate should read "ONE 342" which is my subtle way of announcing this in one of 342 Z8s in jet-black/sport red.
